Well..... When I am old and in a home..... I Hope to GOD someone will push mine back in for me so I don't to be hangin out all over the place! hahahahha

Nursing school was a HUGE strain on my marriage. It was FAR from perfect before hand, but going to college threatened him somehow. I was bettering myself for my family, but he saw it as threatening ..... like I didn't need him anymore or something....

Maybe she already knows of you and that you are a good nurse and would be perfect for the job and didn't feel the need to ask you anything????? Just a guess! Good luck!

I have always charted using military time. ALWAYS

Right where he BELONGS!

Where I work, we are completely paperless, and our name is printed automatically at the end of all our documentation....... typed out, Full first and last name with title at the end. Then we also have signitures that have been scanned into the syst...

The company you work for isn't Assited Living Concepts is it???

Hi back! :) I studied very little to be quite honest. I just never found the time and the date snuck up on me! But what I did study were things given to me by other CCM takers from the past....... One large notebook called "A Case Manager's Study ...

yes, I agree with FireStarterRN, AND STD's are alot more common with the elderly population than many people realize. Goodnight Night Shift folks! :)

WOW! I haven't checked this in a while! SOOOO HAPPY about the "bio dad" and his SENTENCE! WOOOO HOOOO! Throw away the KEY I say! So happy for you and your growing FAMILY!!! What a wonderful story!!!! Brightened my day! thank you!

Rural Nursing should be it's own specialty! You are IT at a rural hospital......until you can transfer critical patients out. You may be very suprised what great experience you can gain working in a rural hospital! I say go for it!

Well, Maybe at this point, you have said you "CAN'T" so much that you have psyched yourself out! Once you get more practice you will probably be AWESOME at it!!!!

Another thing to consider, as I considered Dental Hygiene as a profession at one time, and I spoke to a lady who had worked in the Dental Hyg. field for years....... she made a good point... Yes she made great money per hour, and worked fewer days p...

I would google all the major insurance companies you know....go to their websites and then look for a tab that says something like "career opportunities" or "employment" or something like that. Usually you can search your area and see what jobs are...

The company I work for sends you a list of places you can choose a $25.00 gift card for....which I thought was a fantastic Idea. This year our choices were Target, Fred Myers, A Local movie Theatre and Starbucks I believe. I was thankful for that! ...

I personally enjoy BOOZE! hahahaahah kidding! Any sort of thank you is nice! :)

I have been keeping my co workers up dated on this situation and I can't tell you how many times I have sat here crying at my desk reading this story. It makes me proud to "know" you as a fellow Nurse, but you have CLEARLY gone over and beyond.........
